Get a Mac Ads Get Cancelled

Whatever you might think of Apple as a company you must admit that Apple always knew how to put together a good ad. That is why the news of Apple cancelling the Get a PC ads is widely viewed as an unfortunate occurrence.

Personally, I’m not an Apple fan, but I loved the commercials, which is probably why it got cancelled. Usually when a particular ad campaign gets too popular it begins to overshadow the product its promoting, and I have to wonder if Apple thought these Ads started to do that for their products.

What ever the case, the ‘Get a Mac ads will be missed.

I saw this commercial for Microsoft's Zune posted to Digg earlier this week and thought that it was pretty creative.  So I posted it.  Enjoy.

Wonder Bra - Cadbury Spoof

It appears that not even the world of advertising exists without spoofs.  A couple of months ago I posted to the blog Cadbury's commercial which featured a Gorilla playing the drums to Phil Collins song "In the Air Tonight". This video went all the way around the Internet and is probably why Wonderbra has decided to spoof the commercial.  The Wonderbra's commercial is pretty much the same as Cadbury's commercial, but with one exception.  In Wonderbra's Commercial,  there is a pretty woman in here bra playing the drums instead of a Gorilla. 

Now to me this seems kind of like "cheap" marketing.  But then again, I'm pretty certain that there are many guys out there that won't mind.  Enjoy.

 

Phil Collins "Gorilla Drummer" Cadbury Ad (Dairy Milk)

Those guys at Cadbury are marketing geniuses. This video I have seen everywhere from "Attack of the Show" on G4 to You tube. And so, I decided to share it myself. Enjoy.
